My name is Cyndi and I love mixed media. I just like to start putting things together to see what I can make! I usually have an idea but the materials just jump into my mind as I add things and think what would be good to go next and what will work with what!

I love to work on it and then come back another day to see if I still like it and approve or not where I am with it. I usually add a few more things rummaging through my supplies which are overflowing. I really like a shabby look like lace and linens, but I found these brass look hearts after Christmas and thought they might be nice Valentine gifts with additions to them. So, here is what I came up with.

I am so happy to be with One World, One Heart again this year, the last year for this wonderful event. I see today Lisa is already up to 507 bloggers so I will be around that number I suppose as I had to get my photo together.

I will also for the "One Heart One World" event offer as good bag of "mixed media", they could be; supplies for scrapbook, jewelry, crafting books, fabrics, nature, notions, garden, animals, many things for you to make a fun project and I will also sent a gift to you that I have made.

I also am an ex-mass buyer as I love to shop for supplies till the point I am on overload and will be sharing by selling supplies as well as my vintage and new items in my selling outlets on the sidebar. I love romantic shabby chic, floral, fairies, dragonflies, mermaids, as well as primitive make-do's, nature jars, paper Ephemera, games, quilts, and learning new ideas by blog hopping myself.

I have collected to sew, scrapbook, jewelry, soap, candles, nature items from everywhere, felting, to up cycle, recycle, re-do and everything else. I really like to work on mixed media so I am into everything.

I adore the Junk 'in shows on television this year. That is my calling but I am old, too old for climbing in barns as much as I would love to so, but even today I was going through my bins of linens and loving the feel of the fabrics, floral, stripes, retro, dots, shabby chic, name brand, " Laura Ashley" and "Ralph Lauren" and loving it. I also collect China for mosaics, buttons, and jewelry.

I also love animals very much! It is so hard to reflect in memory of our Two 12 year old Golden Retrievers, Megan and Jordan we lost. We rescued another Golden, Emma! Then we rescued two cats from a service begging for more room for injured animals so we helped adopt out two recovered and healthy cats. Last year, our dogs brought to our back door a 10 oz. Kitten and very proud of her. So Yes, she is named Lilly now and growing with two dog buddies and two cats looking out for her as she is so inquisitive. We love her too!

Please tell me what you like to do for a hobby! I hope you enter my giveaway and "WIN" by draw of a numbered post by the automatic random number generator.

Hello from Maple Valley, WA! *Ü*Love your blog and can totally relate to being a "mass buyer" too! LOL My current obsession is making my own glass beads and metal clay charms, so I guess my fave hobby to choose from would be jewelry. But the others are oh, so close behind! ;-D

If you have time, please stop by my blog (I'm #347 on the list) and say "hi!" too.

I' not sure I have a hobby really. My passion is art though and I too love to collect anything I can use for my art. Supplies, antique ephemera, colors and textures you name it. I guess maybe gardening is a hobby of mine but I'm not that great at it. Also cooking and my kids well they are more then a hobby. They are my joy, and sometimes not but I always love em! I also love to sing when I drive in my car at the top of my lungs! Sannasannabanana@comcast.net

Greetings from Canada.Lovely blog you've got here.As for what I do as a hobby, well I'm into all kinds of things. I paint, make jewelry (including clay work), recently got into scrapbooking (my newest obsession taking all my money lol) and paper art and hopefully soon I'll be trying out a bit of mixed media. I am all over the place, I love trying new things. I've been totally inspired by all the blogs I've visited in this event and for the past week all I've wanted to do was get out my clay or a canvas and get creating but I haven't had the time with this going on. I think the only thing I'm not into or wanting to get into is knitting and crocheting, tried it years ago and managed a piece of material the size of a bookmark before giving it up lol maybe someday but not anytime soon for that one.

I'd love to win something in your giveaway.Ducky Doohttp://whazupduck.blogspot.com/nutamuATaolDOTcom(just replace AT with @ and DOT with . I do this to dodge email grabbing internet bots)

Hi Cyndi, thanks so much for taking the time to come by my blog for a visit, and for inviting me over here! I love your blog design, especially the vintage french papers down the sides! Your giveaway is unique and I of course want to win it but since I rarely win anything I will just drool all over it now :D I have just become you newest follower, gosh so many wonderful blogs out there, where will I find the time Lol I hope you will visit me again in the future as I will you...Hugs from snowy New Hampshire,Beth Phttp://elizabethstudio54.blogspot.com (#409 on list)

Hi Cyndi, I loved reading about you and I loved the blog, it has all the elements I love Old, paper ephemera and "shabby chic" Laura Ashley and Ralph Lauren. I to would love to go with the "Pickers" (on the History Channel) to the barns and climb around, but I am to old. I do jewelry as hobby right now and am looking to open an online store. I also love painting and drawing but now instead of large I am down to ATC size. I love doing the small size. My Royalty Pin The Queen Wears Boots is down at the very bottom of my blog, but it was my first door prize. This door prize is a leather steampunkers bracelet called "Diamonds are a Steampunkers Friend". Barbara

Hi Cyndi and greetings from Virginia! You are similar to me in the way that you enjoy a few different hobbies rather than sticking to just one. I like to create paper beads, sew, scrapbook, work with mixed media, crochet... just to name a few. I would love to be entered into to your giveaway drawing.

I would also love for you to hop on over to my blog for a visit. I am #78 on the OWOH participant list.*hugs*,Jennjustjenndesignz.blogspot.comjustjenndesignz@gmail.com
